Erin worked with our Music Department to support the delivery of the Juilliard curriculum which has been launched this September. She also met and worked with a number of classes and gave us some wonderful performances with her Viola.
Having Erin here at the school really brought The Juilliard-Nord Anglia Performing Arts Programme to life for many of the children. They were able to hear some amazing musical demonstrations from a member of the Juilliard alumni, and they loved getting to know Erin and asking her questions about New York, her own background, the collaboration with Juilliard and the 12 core works which form the foundations of the curriculum.
We are looking forward to seeing Erin in Sanlitun again next March.
